4th graders started this lesson by studying a Winter Count made by Medicine Bear, a chief of the Yanktonai Dakota (Sioux). Winter Counts helped bands keep track of their history. Each symbol represents a particular year.
Traditionally, women and girls would scrape and tan a hide, and the record keeper, usually a man, would draw the symbols. Hides were large, so they could hold a lot of information. But they were also strong and easy to roll up for traveling.
Later, winter counts were drawn on fabric or painting.
These 4th graders studied a timeline of the history of the Northern Cheyenne and then drew their own interpretation of some of the events. Here's what they came up with!!
